The budget for this was 20k.
For what goes on in this video I’d say that’s a pretty good number.
Where did Rob Cantor get $20k?
From Wikipedia:
Cantor’s original budget was $12,000 (equivalent to $14,834 in 2022), provided by Maker Studios. When the production team continued “having more good ideas that we wanted to bring to fruition” like the aerialists and LaBeouf himself, Cantor provided the remaining $8,000 (equivalent to $9,889 in 2022).
Oh no it’s old enough for inflation to take hold. That means I’m old now
Tally Hall residuals?
I miss Cantor’s more experimental stuff like this. His work with Tally Hall is a lot of fun, and Not a Trampoline is a favored album of mine. Like many, I originally found him because he blew up on YouTube a couple of times, with his biggest being this Shia LaBeouf video. Nowadays, though, he’s got a steady income making children’s music in a collaboration with a couple of other artists, and I can respect wanting that stability in your life. But… Man, do I miss his experimental style.
What an amazing video and song.
